Yuck! Pseudo-ice-cream made from lard and Crisco!
Here's what it says:

Mellorine is a food produced by freezing, while stirring,
a pasteurized mix consisting of safe and suitable ingredients
including, but not limited to, milk-derived nonfat solids and
animal or vegetable fat, or both, only part of which may be
milkfat. Mellorine is sweetened with nutritive carbohydrate
sweetener and is characterized by the addition of flavoring
ingredients.
